Khloe Kardashian has three people living with her.
In addition to her two children Tatum and True, whom she shares with ex-fiance Tristan Thompson, the 41-year-old reality TV siren has a teenager in her posh $20M Hidden Hills home.
That boy is Tristan's brother Amari.
Although she no longer dates Tristan, 34, she has Amir at her home because she was close to Tristan's late mother Andrea and chose to take over Amari's care after Andrea's sudden death in 2023.
'For those who don't know, Tristan has a younger brother who is 18 years old, and he is severely disabled,' she said on her podcast Khloe in Wonder Land.
Amari has LGS (Lennox-Gastaut syndrome), which is a form of epilepsy, and he is disabled. He can't walk or talk. He's never been able to talk.
'People are always like, why did I do that? Me and Tristan aren't together, why would I take on helping with Amari?' she said.
'But when I met Tristan and his family, oh my gosh, like nine, almost 10 years ago, which is crazy. When I met them, Andrea, Tristan's mom and I, we became such good friends,' she said.
'I would help her with Amari medically. She would have questions. She would need connections to certain doctors, and I would help with that,' she added.
'So I was very much involved in all of his medical appointments when Andrea was here.'
'I also know how much Amari means to Andrea, and she passed away because she had a sudden heart attack.
Khloe then said that just because she is not longer romantically linked to Thompson does not read she doesn't have 'connections' with his family.
'My relationship with Andrea has nothing to do with Tristan, and my commitment to her has nothing to do with Tristan, and Amari deserves someone who will be there for him, take care of him, provide a great lifestyle for him,' noted the Good American designer.
'So Amari deserves my love and care, regardless of where me and Tristan stand.'
Tristan's lifestyle as a pro basketball player isn't suitable for Amari due to all of the travel his job entrails so Khloe moved him into her Los Angeles home and she loves to see Amari interacting with her children and nieces and nephews.
Khloe – who has 'two sensational caretakers for Amari' - said: 'Tristan is in the NBA, and he is in a different state literally every other day or every few days, and it's just not conducive for Amari to be on that many planes.
'Amari has a handful of seizures a day with the type of epilepsy that he has.
'So Amari stays in LA with me, and I have chosen to take care of him and be there for him, because it's not good that he travels. I love having Amari be a part of my family.
'We just want to provide Amari with the best, most beautiful life that we know how. And he deserves that,' said the ex of Lamar Odom.
'I think it's so important for my kids, my nieces and nephews, to be exposed to all different types of people in the world.
'I think it teaches everyone compassion, understanding. It opens up their minds to seeing, wow, Amari is disabled, sure, but he's also just like us at the same time,' added the sister of Khloe and Kylie.
'And I love seeing how Amari lights up when he's around the kids. He can't verbally talk, but if you know him well enough, he can definitely express himself, and you see the glimmer in his eyes. And he's just such an amazing, amazing young man.'
